• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

2011 RT LTD. blinker switch replace because left would not work after rain. Plugs and wires for stalling. These were in the first 600 miles. I now have 14,000 + miles and the only problem was DPS and limp mode do to brake s/w stalling on.

2013 RT Limited Lava Bronze

Bought new about three weeks ago. At 78 miles orange screen brake system failure sure enough no brakes. Drove home extra careful called dealer and they said to drive it up there are you kidding me, accident waiting to happen and can you imagine the liability. Well I did drive it up there and now has 144 miles and was diagnosed with bad master cylinder. They said it would be an all day job to replace and finally the part came in yesterday. It has been at the dealer now eight days and they just called about an hour ago and said it was ready. Other than that no other problems so far. DON
 
2010 rt no problem after first 1000 miles 16.000 miles
2013 rt limited 1500 miles NO PROBLEM. Heading to maggie valley in 2wks Knock wood
 
2012 RT-S SE5 2100 miles. Bought new in March of this year. A few problems, had a vibration up around 60 to 65 MPH. When 600 mile service was done they tightened the drive belt and all is fine now. I got the flopping fuel gauge which seems to be a fairly common issue. I had the stalling issue during the first 700 miles or so and all is fine now. At lastly the connector on the left side view mirror came undone on its own which caused the turn signal flasher to flash faster than the right side. Only one long trip so far of about 1000 miles and no problems on the trip.
 
2009 GS SE5, 19,500 miles, DPS replaced but never failed. No other problems

2012 RT-S, 11,000 mile, Trans filter O-ring oil leak from factory, Kill switch needs to be replaced, TB fault but update fixed issue. Other than oil leak have not lost any riding time and would jump on it and ride across the county in a hart beat.

2010 RT Full Moon Silver SM5 - Dealers first shippment

Where to start? Steering system replaced, throttle bodies, various codes and running issues was in shop 4 weeks all under warranty I forget what they did, Vibrations since new had to fix torsion bar hitting frame myself, still bad vibrations. Now out of warranty so guess it needs motor mount shims, antifreeze disappeared this spring over a half gallon but no leak? Oil leak at just under 7000 miles from water pump and other areas I'm still investigating, engine light/low oil/limp mode from oil pressure sensor plus it looks like it's leaking must be cracked? Right side compartment keeps opening on it's own, rear air ride won't hold air since new dealer said it was fixed? I think that's all?? Almost 3 1/2 years, I put more miles on my bike then I was able to do with this.
 
2012 RT Ltd, 17,300 miles, inop left turn signal switch (replaced under warranty); front end wobble after tire rotation (replaced front tires, wobble fixed, on my dime); NO OTHER PROBLEMS
